Question Front Spoiler Safety?

Being that my car has been lowered, and I live in Alabama, what type of product is available to keep me from scraping the front spoiler? Will it attach to this Turbo S front spoiler ( http://www.ofoto.com/I.jsp?c=19rxn36...&x=0&y=-m1zz5q ) without modifications? Thanks

Try Gert's front protection bar at carnewal.com. It's the industry standard. Not sure if it fits your car.

I second the recommendation for Gert's bar. Be sure to get it BEFORE you scrape up your bumper.

Almost everybody ( including myself ) gets it after they scrape up their bumper, which is kind of pointless then.

Philip if you are concerned about the splitters on the front, Gert's protection bar will not help with parking stops or with steep and/or sudden drop offs on driveways. It will prefent the trunk bottom from taking any damage but the splitters with get scuffed on the under side. I have aftermarket splitters similar to yours. They take abuse on the underside because they are low and they stick out further.

Gert's bar doesn't help my Turbo S splitter either. My only solution is flat black paint on the bottom, which makes the scrapes visually disappear unless you get under the car.
